For more than 50 years, the NRPA Annual Conference has been the premier meeting of the park and recreation community. During the Annual Conference, you will:
- Learn from people who get it while earning CEUs. You will hear from people who experience the same challenges you do – and learn actionable solutions you can take back to your own community. NRPA offers hundreds of CEU sessions. From entry-level courses to advanced learning opportunities, you will find exactly what you need to grow.
- Meet and enjoy networking together. The NRPA Annual Conference offers countless opportunities to network with other professionals. From the Opening General Session to the Opening Reception, interactions in education sessions to everyday moments – we know you’ll find a chance to connect with someone new.
- Find products and services to help you solve everyday challenges. From full playgrounds to live software demonstrations, more than 400 partners and vendors will set up booths and interactive exhibits at the Exhibit Hall.
By coming together to network with, learn from and celebrate each other, we can truly Build Together, Play Together.
The early bird discount ends on Friday August 1, 2025. Please register here to join us in Orlando.
